The witch doctor Xia was afraid of insects!
Within a few days, the news spread throughout Yafatu. When Chengguo found out, she specially invited Yelaixiang to comfort her.
"Xiaxia, don't worry, no beast will laugh at you. Who isn't afraid of those dark bugs? If I saw one, I'd jump even higher."
Orange's eyes sparkled as she looked at Summer, her gaze filled with determination and encouragement.
"Me... I not only jump higher, but I also shout more melodiously than you!" Night-blooming jasmine chuckled charmingly, her eyes filled with worry.
Hearing their sincere and witty words of comfort, Sheng Xia felt a warm glow in her heart.
In the animal world, being afraid of insects would be seen as being an oddball, but as a modern person, she didn't think there was anything wrong with being afraid of insects, and she didn't mind being talked about.
It's just a little awkward...
My best friend came all the way to comfort me; I can't let her down.
She smiled playfully, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling as she pushed the steaming food on the table between them, tilting her head.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm really fine. Eat up, this is grilled cold noodles, it won't taste good when it's cold."
The grilled cold noodles were made by Yang Yun. As soon as he made them, Sheng Xia felt that what she made was garbage and briefly lost interest in cooking.
Soon, the orange's attention was diverted.
She looked at the food on the table with some curiosity; it was steaming hot and golden brown, and looked delicious.
She looked up and asked eagerly, "Xiaxia, is this something you just came up with?"
It looks delicious.
Without waiting for a reply, he excitedly picked up his chopsticks, took a piece, chewed it, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Mmm! Delicious!!"
"Eat more if you like it, there's plenty more in the kitchen."
Shengxia looked at her with a smile, picked up a piece herself, and urged Yelaixiang next to her to join in.
"Xiangxiang, have a taste."
"Okay, thank you Xiaxia~"
The three females ate and chatted, filling the courtyard with laughter.
Wolf King stood quietly to the side, adjusting the temperature in real time, his gentle eyes never leaving the height of summer.
"Hey Dr. Xia, are you home? It's me, Xue Lian, I've come to visit!"
A light, cheerful voice came from outside the door.
Shengxia turned around in surprise and saw the chubby Xuelian. She couldn't help but smile and said, "It's Xuelian! Come in quickly."
Then she turned to introduce to Cheng Guo and Ye Lai Xiang: "This is Xue Lian. She lives near the back mountain and is very easy to get along with."
In the beast world, females are simple and do not reject each other, so it was only in midsummer that I dared to introduce them directly.
Everyone greeted each other warmly.
"Hello Snow Lotus, my name is Orange Fruit."
"Hello, I'm Night-Blooming Jasmine~"
"Hello." Xue Lian greeted them with a smile, then sat down unceremoniously in the empty seat next to Sheng Xia, her eyes precisely fixed on the food on the table.
This is the taste!
Seeing this, Sheng Xia smiled knowingly, blinked her bright, doe-like eyes, and said with a soft laugh.
"This is grilled cold noodles made by my partner, try it!"
If she doesn't speak up soon, she's afraid she'll cry from hunger.
"Okay, thank you, Doctor Xia!" Xue Lian opened her mouth wide, stuffed the whole piece in, and closed her mouth with her cheeks bulging.
Chew, chew, chew... Chew: "Mmm, so delicious!" Chew...
Seeing how much she enjoyed her food, Shengxia smiled, her eyes crinkling.
Several females, because of the arrival of the snow lotus, had a great appetite and ended up with round bellies.
"Ah! This feels so good. I'm going home to sleep now. Thank you, Doctor Xia. Oh, and that polar bear skin by the door is for you. Don't refuse it, I have plenty more."
As she spoke, Xue Lian waved to her partner, who quickly carried her away.
Soon after, Chengguo and Yelaixiang also took their leave, each secretly leaving a gift.
A bucket of honey, and a large, transparent, soft animal hide.
Clearly, the honey was a gift from the orange tree, and the other was a gift from the night-blooming jasmine.
A warm feeling settled over her heart in the sweltering summer heat. She rubbed her round belly and grinned.
"Xiaxia, do you want to go for a walk?"
Aoki ran over with a bright smile, his large, warm hands touching her clothes as he gently rubbed her stomach.
"Okay." Sheng Xia nodded, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling.
Then, remembering something, he added, "Oh, right, send them all some hawthorn pills."
"Okay, I'll go deliver it. I'm free right now." Hu Xue quickly kissed Sheng Xia on the lips and walked towards the kitchen with a beaming smile.
Summer cried out in terror, "Fox! Come for a walk with me!" Seeing the wolf beside her, her eyes lit up: "Let the wolf deliver it."
“Okay, whatever Xiaxia wants is fine with me~” He immediately turned around, revealing a smile that could charm anyone.
In the sweltering summer heat, I felt utterly bewildered, as if I'd been tricked.
As soon as they stepped outside, they encountered many enthusiastic orcs. Shengxia was a little unaccustomed to it, so she pulled Qingmu along.
"Let's go outside for a walk."
“Okay!” Aoki and Koyuki agreed without hesitation.
After strolling leisurely around the animal-free area for a while, Shengxia's condition did not improve; instead, her stomach suddenly started rumbling.
Her eyes flickered, and she looked at Aoki with a blush.
"I think I have... food poisoning, I need to go to the toilet."
Eating too much and needing to go to the toilet, especially in front of your partner, can be incredibly embarrassing, making you want to dig your toes into the ground.
Seeing that beads of sweat quickly appeared on her nose and that she was biting her lower lip with a look of suppressed resentment, Aoki picked Shengxia up in his arms without hesitation.
Aoki: "Natsu, the tribe's toilets are just ahead."
Fox Snow: "It's very clean, you can use it with confidence."
The males always scavenge for leftovers; they often got stomach aches when they were young, so he knows all too well the look on their faces.
Xiaxia couldn't hold it in any longer!
Going home would take too long, and they were worried that Xiaxia would feel uncomfortable if she waited too long. Fortunately, the village's toilets were newly built, and they helped out.
I know it's very clean inside, with no odor, but it's too well-ventilated and a bit cold, so Xiaxia will have to make do for a while.
A gentle breeze carried a hint of chill.
Soon, in the height of summer, the tribe's toilets came into view.
It is indeed very new, neatly arranged and clean.
But what's with this sound?
"ah----!"
"Yun'er... Yun'er, how are you?"
Fox Snow and Green Wood exchanged glances, while Sheng Xia frowned slightly, having heard nothing.
"Should we... go back?" Aoki frowned slightly, glancing disapprovingly in the direction of the female-only restroom.
The sound was still coming in intermittently...
